Chagas disease (American trypanosomiasis)
Epidemiology. cause
• Chagas disease is a protozoa contagious disease called Trypanosoma cruzi. If the feces of kissing bugs infected with this parasite come into contact with the skin or the mucous membranes of the eyes or mouth, they can become infected with this parasitic disease.
• The disease can be transmitted congenitally, through blood transfusions, solid organ transplantation, ingestion of infected food, needles, and by clinical laboratory personnel through contact with infected instruments.
• In the United States, infection is mainly imported from foreign countries, but it can also be transmitted through raccoons or rodents.
• Chagas disease is also called Chagas Disease/American Chagas Disease, American Trypanosomiasis. The incubation period is 1-12 weeks. It could be several years older than that.
Symptoms, Signs
• Acute phase followed by chronic phase for 2-3 months
• You can develop meningoencephalitis about 3 weeks after the onset.
• Namely, Chagas disease is classified into acute Chagas disease and chronic Chagas disease.
• If not properly treated, the disease will last a lifetime or die.
• Acute Chagas disease lasts 2-3 months and
• Vascular parasites may be found. In this case, asymptomatic or inconsistent symptoms may occur. Invasive skin lesions (usually the face or arms) that form when these protozoa enter the body may swell. The affected area is called chagoma in English. Anomalous eyelids may swell. These signs are called Romana signs in English.
• Occasionally, conjunctivitis and sinus anterior lymph node enlargement, fever, malaise, hepatomegaly, encephalitis, thrombosis, giant esophagus, megacolon, acute myocarditis, etc. may occur.
• As acute Chagas’ disease becomes subacute or chronic, there may be no symptoms, and sometimes various heart and digestive diseases may cause devastation and death of the patient.
• People with compromised immune systems can get much worse with this disease. Diagnosis
• If a presumptive diagnosis of the disease is made through medical history, symptom signs, and examination, the pathogen is detected and confirmed with the acute stage blood specimen.
• Diagnose with IFA, ELISA, Wesrern blot test, IgA antibody test, PCR analysis test, etc. with reference to medical history such as travel to Latin America or other regions, transfusions, mother’s experience with these diseases, etc.
Treatment
• Treat with Nifurtimox or Benznidazole.
